SPECIFICATION formingpart of Letters Patent No. 747,929, d t d Dec b 29, 1903.

Application filed September 21, 1903. Serial No. 173.967. (No model.)

T0 at whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, ANNIE S. BLISS, of Boston, in the county of Suffolk and State of Massachusetts, have invented a new and Improved Revolving Stand for Stove-Ovens, of which the following is a specification.

It is the principal object of this invention freest possible access to the articles on the stand.

The third object of the invention is make special provision for food which is to be baked in cups or similar receptacles, such as cupcustard.

' The nature of the invention in detail is fully described below and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure l is a plan view of my revolving stand. Fig. 2 is a side or edge view of the same. Fig. 3 is an enlarged central vertical section of the central support with portions of its immediate connections in elevation. Fig. 4 is a horizontal section taken on line 4, Fig. 3.

Similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

(1 represents a vertically-bored socket provided at its lower end with an outwardlyextending horizontal flange b, provided with holes 0, arranged in a circle.

(2 represents a hub provided with an outwardly-extending horizontal flange e, and f represents a series of holes arranged in a circle therein. This hub is provided with an inwardly-extending annular shoulder d, which rests on the upper end of the socket a, and

the lower portion g of said hub extends down into said socket, whereby rotation may be freely imparted to the hub.

A number ofarms hsay four, for example--extend radially and horizontally from the flange b, preferably in the manner shown, their inner ends h extending through the holes 0 and being clenched against the upper surface of the flange, and their outer ends h being turned up, as shown. These arms constitute the base and are preferably made of wire.

Extending radially from the'fiange e and with their inner ends extending through the holes f and clenched against the under surface of said flange are a number-say sixteen-of horizontal radial arms is. The outer ends of these arms are bent downwardly around a ring Z, as shown in Figs. 1 and 2. The arms is and ring Z are preferably made of wire. the ring Z and arms it, nextsaid ring, are small rings p, also made, preferably, of wire. In operation the above-described stand is placed in theoven with its base on the bottom thereof, and such articles of food and dishes containing such food as are to be cooked placed upon the radial arms it. Any food which is to be cooked in cups is placed within the rings 19. The support or shelf, which comprises the arms k and their hub, may then be rotated as desired by the cook or person in charge in order that the diiferent sides of the different articles of food may be evenly cooked ormay be cooked in the manner desired. i i

It will be noticed that the supported arms Z0, ring, Z, and rings 10 are all made of wire in order that the hot air may have the freest 85 Z possible access to the food and he obstructed as little as possible by the supporting-shelf.

Hence these wires are made as small as practicable in order that substantially all portions of the articles supported by the device may be reached by the hot air.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- 1 The herein-described improved revolving stand forstove-ovens, consisting of the vertically-bored socket (1 provided with the outwardly-extending horizontal flange b formed with holes 0; the radial horizontal wire basearms h secured at their inner ends to said flange; the hub d provided with the outwardly-extending horizontal flange e formed Secured by suitable tie-wires n to I with holesf; the radial wire supporting-arms In testimony whereof I have signed my 70 secured at their inner ends to the flange 6; name to this specification in the presence of the wire ring Z secured to the outer ends of two subscribing witnesses.

said arms In; and the wire rings 10 each se- ANNIE S. BLISS. 5 cured by tie-wires to two radial arms 70 and WVitnesses:
